Silent Hill Downpour sees convict Murphy Pendleton stranded in the foggy streets of the cursed town after his prison transport crashes outside Silent Hill. Unlike previous games, Downpour features far greater exploration opportunities for players, introducing side quests for the first time within an expansive, pseudo open-world.

It has its shortcomings but overall we came away quite impressed with Vatra Games’ stab at Konami’s classic horror franchise.
